2015 Ford TAURUS problems and owner complaints

I WAS FULLY STOPPED AND TURNING LEFT AT A STOP LIGHT ON A CITY STREET, THE LIGHT WAS GREEN, I WAITED FOR TRAFFIC TO CLEAR. DURING THE MIDDLE OF THE LEFT TURN, I LOST STEERING FUNCTION: WHILE I TRIED TO TURN LEFT, THE VEHICLE VEERED RIGHT. THE RIGHT WHEEL STRUCK THE CURB. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TOWED TO A FORD DEALERSHIP. THE LOWER CONTROL ARM AND BALL JOINT TOTALLY SEPARATED. THE DEALER CLAIMS THIS HAPPENED DUE TO STRIKING THE CURB, BUT THIS IS NOT THE CASE, IT HAPPENED DURING THE LEFT TURN.

FORD ISSUED A RECALL OF THE 2013-2015 TAURUS, BUT ONLY WITH THE TURBO-CHARGED ENGINE. RECALL IS FOR FUEL PUMP MODULES. THE CAR CAN STOP RECEIVING FUEL OR NOT START ALTOGETHER. ONCE IT STOPS RECEIVING FUEL, IT WILL NOT START. THIS CAN HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING. ALTHOUGH MY VEHICLE IS NOT TURBO CHARGED, IT HAPPENED TO ME ON MY 2015 FORD TAURUS WITH THE 3.5 L ENGINE. 2 WEEKS AGO, IT REFUSED TO START. DEALERSHIP, ROUNTREE FORD IN SHREVEPORT, COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENED. TOOK A SHOT IN THE DARK AND REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP RELAYS. WRONG ANSWER. …

I PURCHASED A 2015 FORD TAURUS WITH 34,000 MILES ON IT THE BEGINNING OF OCTOBER 2015. ABOUT A MONTH AGO I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE STALLING OUT AND THEN NOT STARTING.

I SEARCHED MY VIN NUMBER AND FOUND THAT MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE WAS NOT A PART OF THE RECALL. IN MY RESEAR…
